My Love...not Ours by LinzAy

The waves roll in, overlapping one another.
The sound and beauty of it all brings back such wonderful memories.
You.
Somebody with a love that was once so perfect for me.
But it was all so quickly washed away.
Just like when the waves roll back pulling the shells with them.
They have no choice, don't have the power to fight.
So they, the shells, roll away - probably never to be seen again.
Our love. That's the way it was lost.
The strength of something that could overlap me pulled you away.
Another.
She so quickly grasped you and I lost you at the break of day.
The sun is now rising, making my tears visible.
They fall one by one to the sand.
Just as my heart did, piece by piece.
As you dropped it, so carelessly, from your hand.
But I'm bound to you, I just can't let you go.
Just as the waves continuously grasp onto the shore.
You.
You're making me cry now, all because we don't share a love anymore.
Onesided. Love can't be that way.
But somehow it is, right now.
I can't stop loving you, I've tried.
I just don't know how.
It's only my love now going on forever strong, not ours.
And ever since that day you stopped loving me, I've cried.
Our love.
Lost forever with the tides.

You know its an excellent poem when you can actually hear the waves hitting the shore, and you get a copmlete image in your head of him being lured away. And yet, the shore and waves will always be connected....
Lovely.

you sure?
LinzAy, are you sure you don't have anyone to love? You are writing a large amount of poems related to this topic lately, so I'm just curious.

I'm sure
Yes seizure......i'm sure i dont have a love. I wish i did. I've been hurt though by guys tat i havent really cared for and i think, wow, what if i started to love him, imagine how hurt i wouldve been then. And thats how im able to write stuff about it. Plus i get enough emotion from music and movies and stuff to where i can feel it...I'm a very emotional persona nd can feel things that i havent felt before if it comes o me. I dont know! nevermind. Im a hard person to explain. This one i actually wrote from a sentence i heard on tv......."maybe the answer to this case will be lost in the tides of the beaches forever" And i thought of how beautiful that would sound in a love lost poem. But anyways, this is long enough......i'll let everyone know though when i do fall in love!
